Home » Editors » What We Really Are: Our Best of the Net and BILiNE nominations

Awards season is upon us, and the confluence of nominations for both Best of the Net and Best Indie Lit New England being due has given us cause to review our entire past two years’ worth of work. It’s moments like that where you get a real sense of the work you’ve done: Bullying to terrorism, real-life shooting tragedies and superhero fantasies, and everything in between. All of it has graced our digital pages, provided by one of the most amazing collections of writers any editor could hope to work with.

The writers we’ve worked with have been amazingly diverse, cutting across lines of race, gender, sexuality, age, experience and literary style. This has been a blessing in every way possible, to see so many disparate voices echoing across each other, an eclectic symphony of things that very much need to be heard.

It’s always a little staggering to take a deep breath and look back at it all as a whole, to listen again to each of those voices in succession. To realize that all this beauty and human frailty is what we really are. This is the work we do, and we’re immensely proud of it. Thank you for being a part of our madcap journey.

Good luck to all of our nominees, and thank you to all of our contributors for making Radius the exciting and unique journal it is. You are all beautiful and fearless, and we’re immensely grateful for your support.
